The Pistons beat the Warriors to top the Eastern Conference at 5-2. Wizards, Celtics, Bucks and Magic each have a 4-2 card. Memphis, Clippers, Rockets and the Spurs top the West at the moment. Am impressed by some players, Giannis A. is on target to by the MVP. Marc Gasol is shinning, and so is Porzingis. His last game was a wow - as the Knicks beat the Cavs. C's Tatum is playing like a non rookie and is doing 20 points in some games. Interesting so far, on any given night, a favored team can lose. And bad news (again) for the Sixers' rookie Fultz, out indefinitely with shoulder soreness - can't even stretch his arms up to shoot. Embid, Simmons and now Fultz. Out West, Blake is playing like Blake of old, and the Melo, Paul, Westbrook trio is interesting to watch, sometimes I wonder if PG and Russ were feeling inside, no no Melo, don't shoot it when you just caught the ball, we are still out here.
